Exams are done!

Saturday, May 6th, 2006

My junior year is over!  I took two exams back to back this morning, and am now done.  I’ll be in Blacksburg through graduation so I can see Michael and Cory graduate.  Hit me up if you’re in the Blacksburg area and want to do something this week.  I’m very available.

Don’t Substitute Praying for Obeying

Wednesday, April 26th, 2006

So Samuel said: “Has the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed than the fat of rams.” (1 Samuel 15:22) Have you noticed how much praying for revival has been going on of late-and how […]

Answered prayers

Tuesday, April 18th, 2006

When the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, “How did the fig tree wither at once?” And Jesus answered them, “Truly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be […]

Quoted about the Easter Service

Tuesday, April 18th, 2006

On Sunday, nlcf joined with Campus Crusade, Athletes in Action, Cornerstone, and Blacksburg United Methodist Church (think Wesley Foundation) for a combined Easter service in Burruss Auditorium. Some of the featured speakers included student athletes and coaches, including football’s head coach Frank Beamer. The Collegiate Times wrote an article about Beamer’s participation in the service, […]

Book review: The Organic Church

Monday, April 17th, 2006

This week, I finished reading The Organic Church, a book about church planting. Neil Cole writes about “growing faith where life happens.” I think that’s one of the problems the American church is facing today. For so many people, what they experience on Sunday has nothing to do with what they live on Monday. Even […]
